Please visit our website at: www.kiwanismusicfestival.net The Grey County Kiwanis Festival of Music hosts a yearly festival for adjudicated performances.
Check out our website for more details.
We also want to thank the Community Foundation Grey Bruce for their funding for our volunteers this year!
Without our volunteers, we do not have a Festival! It helped to support training volunteers as well as provided coffee break supplies, personalized name tags, and thank you gifts.
Ultimately almost 900 students from Grey & Bruce counties benefitted from our large volunteer team!
